Actually, this started in a thread on Zelda, but I thought it would be interesting to hear other people's thoughts on this in other games.

There are some people that actually find Link's screams in Ocarina of Time or Super Smash Brothers (this also applies to the other characters in that game) amusing, and for the sake of hearing them do it, purposely make them fall off high cliffs, take damage, etc.

I also had a friend who made Isaac fall off the stage in Castlevania: Lament of Innocence on purpose because it was that amusing to hear him scream.

So, have you played any games where you do this to particular characters because it's amusing?
 
I do that a lot in some games, like in Duke Nukem, Legend of Zelda, Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, and Metal Gear Solid. For some reason it amuses me to hear Snake scream out as he dies.....Does that make me sadistic?
 
yea it's quite fun to see a character Scream or die in an awful way, like I used to let C.J from GTA Sanandreas get out of the Hydra while I'm in the air to see him crash in the ground =D
 
Well, there's the classic, "STOP POKING MEEEEEEEEEE!!!!" from Warcraft (uh...2? or was it the original? i forget)...

I did it all the time on the Tomb Raider games. There's something about Lara's scream...and then the big "SPLAT!" when she hit the ground.

O.O wow, I need a little bit of therapy...
 
Hahaha. Yeah. Sometimes I just haet the main character, or just do it for the lulz. Quite funny when Sam Fisher(Splinter Cell) falls, for some reason. Of course, one can't forget when Naked Snake eats this and that of a particular disgusting looking creature or plant, and says it's tasty. Fried scorpion, anyone?

XDDDDDDD

I used to do that all the time in the old Tomb Raider games. I used to make Lara climb all the way to the top of some high cliff just to make her jump off. Then she'd let out a long scream and hit the ground. XD

Strange practice right there. Sorta disturbing, too. No, I don't purposely take damage to listen to my character scream out in agony or fear. haha

I usually get to listen to the screams just from playing. I'm not perfect.

ah.....me too.....i don't really do it on purpose.....i here them all the time when i screw up..........although when i first played Zelda OoT i did jump off on purpose all the time, just to here Young Link scream........
 
I made Link fall all the time to hear him scream XD

I also liked to make Mario fall when my friends would play so I could hear them scream. They didn't like it too much XD
 
The Mario fall was epic >< Especially on Mario 64 (I think it was that game >_<), I never did it on purpose on Tomb Raider although it was definitely noticeable :wacky:
 
I liked setting my Sims on fire to listen to their screams.

I also enjoyed people squishing in GTA in a tank. It was gewd. I never got bored of the squishing sound

Both: high-five for doing the saaaaaaame.

In that Starcraft game I love, every unit seems to scream as it dies. You can launch a nuclear missile worth about 400 damage. Against 200 or so marines, each with 30 HP, and every one of them moaning as they die and explode ... it's somewhat satisfying.

"Ultimate Spiderman" lets you play as Venom, where you can basically catch people with yer paedo-tentacles and they scream as you absorb them and their life. Again: satisfying.

You are the PERFECT woman. I loved taking a tank and squishing puny pathetic pedestrians. It felt real good :sneaky: and not only that, but I loved jumping out of planes without a parachute. It was soooooo much fun.
 
That reminds me--there is a game where I actually enjoy hearing the screams.

Katamari. But then again, you can't exactly play Katamari and really win without hearing the screams anyways. I still found it amusing though.

I love hearing her fall and shortly after that thump sound as she hits the ground. It sounds so real actually, especially when you see how her body is after she falls. I'd always tell my brother (who usually has the controller) to "do it again" just for the heck of it.

And then there's Metal Gear Solid right when you lose and the Game Over screen appears. I believe you hear Snake screaming in the background and you hear the support team screaming, "SNAAAAKKKEEEE!!!" Love the sound of that! And I can't seem to picture Snake screaming just like that, so it made it more humorous.
 
I think the mario party games had the best screams. From Marios "Wowowowowow!" to DK's strange and unreplicatable monkey grunt, losing in those mini-games was almost worth it.
 
I always used to spam Chun-Li (gotta love that throw) in the oldschool Street Fighter II and always loved her echoy scream when she lost a round...And you could listen to it in the sound tester thingy too! lol

My friends used to "purposefully" bail in Tony Hawk games...do they scream in those? I forget...anyways, I think it was mostly because they sucked though, actually...>_>
